It is unreal Assange has been essentially detained for nearly 6 years and had even more of his freedom taken away for not standing trial in a foreign country. I am surprised he was able to maintain operational control of wikileaks this long with all of the incoming lines of communication running through a heavily monitored building in a 5 eyes country and round the clock surveillance.

Hopefully Kristinn will run the organisation well and continue the mission. While Assange did seem to disproportionately leak damaging material about the countries he perceived to be collaborating against him, i think its pretty understandable given his situation.
